Book Description
CEREBRAL CIRCUS gives authentic insight into neurological training and research, told in the age-old scenario of the unpolished country boy versus the city slicker. The protagonist is Allen Flint Childress, a half-breed Cherokee lad raised in the infertile red clay hills of North Louisiana. He was drawn into medicine by his love and respect of Dr. Homer Baines Shirley, a tough old country doctor who pulled Allen into the world by a risky traumatic forceps delivery one cold December night in 1967. A straight-A scholarship student at L.S.U., Allen sailed through the premed curriculum by an indefinable instinct and ambition for neurology; attempting as a freshman to register early for senior neuroanatomy. He succeeded in this improbable drive through a risky affair with his faculty advisor, an attractive older woman. Through hard work and scholarship aid, he graduated from Cornell University Medical College in 1991, then went on to internship at Bellevue Hospital in New York, a 3,500 teaching hospital with approximately 1000 trainees. When Allen became a resident physician in neurology, he became embroiled in a longstanding conflict with Dr. Bertrand O. Stanford, senior professor of neurology; who was performing unethical dangerous neurological research because of his ambition to be awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine. But what could Allen, a mere neurology resident do against a senior professor? Allen gained a modicum of courage when he asked himself, What would old Dr. Homer Shirley who delivered me, do if he were in my shoes?

Book Description
A Powerful Road Map for Surpassing Everyone’s Expectations Break through your self-imposed limitations by learning how your own brain can be your biggest obstacle—or your greatest ally. You’d expect your brain to be an always-reliable ally in your quest for a successful, satisfying life, but surprisingly the opposite is usually true. That’s because your brain is pretty much the same model your ancestors were using thousands of years ago when mere survival was everyone’s primary goal. It tells you now what it told them then: Play it safe. Avoid risk. Evade confrontation. Don’t venture outside the territory you already know. And never break the habits that have gotten you this far. Coming at just the right time to help you deal with the growing demands of our pressure-packed, fast-changing world, Robert Cooper’s Get Out of Your Own Way helps you understand what’s going on in that head of yours. Once you know what really drives you, you can switch off the counterproductive parts of your brain, engage the helpful parts, and set out on the path to accomplishing what everyone else thinks you can’t. Based on more than two decades of worldwide research, Get Out of Your Own Way shows you the five keys for making the choices that let you engage and triumph over the realities of today’s world: • Direction, not motion • Focus, not time • Capacity, not conformity • Energy, not effort • Impact, not intentions Filled with wonderful stories—about everything from the note written by one of the author’s ancestors upon leaving Dublin for America in 1829 (“On the horizon is where hope lives . . . I am going there”) to the unlikely exploits of the world record–setting Jamaican bobsled team—this groundbreaking book confirms that the next frontier is not only ahead of you, it’s inside of you . . . and what everyone else thinks is impossible isn’t.
